DRIVERS are still being hit with long delays heading into Essex after a car broke down in the Dartford Tunnel.
It meant the tunnel was temporarily closed shortly after noon.
A live map from the AA suggests there are still significant delays, with traffic slow-moving as far back as Swanley, Sevenoaks.
Traffic heading from south Essex across the QEII Bridge towards Kent is moving as normal.
